Midterm Assignment2

The document contains 6 calculus problems involving limits of incremental changes (Δx or Δt) as the increments approach 0. Each problem involves finding the derivative of a function by taking the limit of the difference quotient. The solutions show setting up and simplifying the difference quotients and taking the limits to find the derivatives, which are rational functions of x for each problem.
